been doomed" in most of them can
have but one result-an explosion
and reaction that will ruin thous-
ands and give legitimate business
in those localities a serious setback.
The enormous increase in railroad
building has a broad basis of neces-
sity in the interruption of this work
during recent years of business de-
preston and in the actual growth
of the country. But there are indi-
cations that it is being overdone
and the loaning of money on new
railroad bonds by the banks would
lead to trouble should a greater
stringency in the money market
force q sale Of the securities.
The third source Of danger is the
accumulation Of money in the Treas
ury. The devices of the Secretary
for forcing it out are, apparently
about exhausted. 1t is nearly three
months before Congress will meet,
and it will be considerably longer
than that before any measure of re
lief can be adopted by that body
1t is possible, and perhaps even
probable, that no serious check will
be given the country's prosperity by
any of these causes, but they hold
contingencies which careful men are
considering World.

A Fine Tribute to the Presi-
dent.

The Philadelphia Inquirer, a
staunch republican paper, in lead
ing editorial says
"The visit of the President of the
United States to Philadelphia re-
vealed to those of his fellow-citi
with whom he was brought into per-
sonal contact different man from
the one they knew from representa-
ton. The portraits of him with
which they were familiar, whether
drawn by pen or pencil, did not de-
note him truly. There are fine, no
BILE lines of intellectually and feel
ing in his face which the portraits
have not given; he has characteris-
tics of the head and heart which
have not been shown by the por-
traits. After seeing this mentally
strong, bright man, it is folly to talk
of his having achieved his present
high position by mere accident,
chance or luck. He achieved it by
the possession and use of remarka-
bic abilities, and his thought, speech,
manner, appearance all go to prove
it. His popularity in Philadelphia
to-day is a thousand times greater
than it was week ago. His praises
are in the mouths Of those of wisest
censnre, of those opposed to him po-
litically, whose respect and conf
dence he won during his brief visit
here by the fine dignity and courtesy
Of his manner, his strong, flbrous

The time has come when a good
walk to the University is absolutely
necessary. The old one around the
bend is utterly worn out and dan
gerous. Last winter it was neces-
sary to walk around it through the
mud. 1t was temporarily repaired,
but cannot last but few weeks at
most. We hope the new walk will
substantial manner, whether it be
brick or wood. If the latter, there
are some old log stables in town that
can be had for the hauling, which
would make an excellent foundation
for the walk.

The State press is inclined all
around to say a good word for the
University. There is no reason why
the press should not continually
boom the University. 1t is State
institution and is for the benefit Of
all the people of the State and all
classes and professions should give
it their hearty support. In that
way only can the greatest good be
derived from it. It would be well
for citizens of west Virginia to
ponder this question well before send
ing their sons to other states to col
lege.

ssThere is an old chestnut still in
use by some Of our innocent republi-
can friends to thiseffect: "The re-
pubicans are going to carry West
Virginia next year" The Charles
ton Star disposes of the matter in
the following lines: 'For several
years the democratic party of this
State being engaged in a fractional
warfare, opened a breach that threat
ened to disrupt the party, dropping
it into the enemy's camp. This
raised the hope in the republican
breast of capturing West Virginia,
and made that party jubilant. But
about the time that the republicans
were getting ready to gather in the
discordant Democracy, the latter's
common sense and party fealty came
to its aid, and the result is thor
oughly solidified and unterrified de
mocracy. This pains our republi-
can friends exceedingly. They have
seen their hopes go glimmering up
the spout whereon the legendary
woodbine twineth. And with the
loss Of hope came also the stings of
modification caused by the plainly
demonstrated fact that it could not
play winning hand even when it
was received from it's adversary.
Loss Of hope is paining the rank
and file; the stigma of stupidity
their leaders"

The citizens of Morgantown voted
this month on proposition to sub
scribe and guarantee $4,000 in
bonds to a new railroad that is de-
signed to pierce that section and
reach Berkeley Springs. There was
majority of 244 in favor of the sub
scription.- Vest Va. Democrat.
The above is about as reliable as
the statements Of the Democrat us
ually are. The truth is, there has
not been railroad election here fol
several years and when there was
Morgantown was no more interested
than any other section of the district
having an equal population.

The Amalsamated Association.

PITrsBURG, April 1.-The lodges of the
Amalgamated Association of Iron and
Steel Workers throughout the country will
elect delegates during the coming month
to the annual convention which meets in
this city on June7. 1t is expected that the
convention will be in session at least two
weeks. The most important matters TO be
considered will be the recent troubles with
the Knights of Labor, the scale of wages
for the ensuing year, and the adyisability
of further strengthening the organization
by taking in men under new classifications,
so that all skilled labor will have repre-
sentation. 1t is said that the admission OF
pipe mill workmen and steel meters will
be strongly advocated. and that if they are
taken in il will increase the membership OF
the association to $4,000 men. A number
of the delegates favor scale based on the
different grades of iron instead Of on bar
iron, as at present.

1t Means Three Years In jail In Kentucky
FRANKFORT, KY, April 1.-The Court
of Appeals to-day Overruled the petition
for rehearing in the case Of John J. Cor.
Nelson vs.. Commonwealth. This il Mr..
Cornelison's last resort to eyade the pun.
ishment decreed against him for assaulting
Judge Richard Reid in Mount Sterling, in
May, 1884, and who aiterward committed
suicide. The verdict of the jury in the
lower court was fine OF one cent aud con-
tinement in the county Jail for three years.
The case was appealed to the Superior
Court, to hear which the Governor ap-
pointed special Court, consisting OF
Hons Malcolm leaman, Of Henderson

McElroy, of Bowling Green. This Court
reversed the judgment of the lower Court,
Judge Harrison dissenting on the ground
that the jury could not award such pun
ishment for misdemeanor in the absence
OF statutory law to authorize il. The case
was taken TO the Court of Appeals by the
Commonwealth, and in December last the
Judgment OF the lower Court was affirmed,
whereupon Cornelison filed petition for
reheariug.
The Clerk of the Court of Appeals will

A New and Sensational Line of Evidence to
BE Brought by MARITIME.
NEW YORK, April Jacob Sharp will
be the next one of those indicted for CON-
plicity in the Broadway steal to be brought
to trial.
This has been definitely decided upon
by District Attorney MARITIME, and the
preparation of the case for presentation to
a Jury is now in active progress.
Sharp's trial was decided upon because
the District Attorney does not wish to run
the risk of another disagreement in the
Cleary case. So he proposes to first try
some of the alleged tempters in the famous
case, as this will bring out an entirely
new line of evidence which has not been
limited at by the people OF the District At
tOrncy s office. This, it is now intimated,
will he of very sensational character,
and after having been made available in
tina trials OF the chiefs of the conspiracy,
can then be used against the Aldermen
who have not yet been tried.
The date for Sharp's trial has not yet

tine can get Judge before whom he can

He Murders His Wife aud Attempts to Gre

MONTGOMERY, ALA, April 1.-Particu-
lars of horrible crime have just come to
light.
Last Tuesday morning Tarleton Steele,
colorcd, murdered his wife near Ada, iii
this State. He took the body and carried
it off to lonely place in the woods, 4 mile
from home, threw it in gully, piled
wood and straw on it, poured Kerosene oil
on the heap and set fire to it. He then re-
turned home and lett the body to be Gre
mated
The gentleman on. whose place he was
living missed the woman, hut said nothing
about it., and the murderer remained on
the place a day and night after the crime
was committed. Wednesday he went back
to the woods and found that the body had
not been entirely burned up. He piled
more fuel on the remains, but having no
match to start the fire again he fled. Su5-
picion had been aroused, and neighbOrs
searched the woods and found the remain
ing portions OF the body.
The murderer was captured ten miles
distant at sundOwn, and brought to the
city and lodged in Jail, lie made full
confession of the terrible crime.
